Graham Cracker vs Icicle

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Graham Cracker belongs to the beige family and Icicle to the beige-greige family. Icicle (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Graham Cracker (LRV 22), a difference of 60 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Graham Cracker runs red while Icicle is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 47.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
